I keep chains on all four wheels on my plow truck, and would not think about using it without. But, it's not registered and never has to be driven anyhwere far from home. I'm on the steepest mountain road in town, and it's all dirt and never gets salted. Any pickup truck I've had with plow and no chains was useeless. Not because it wouldn't plow, more because it wouldn't stop coming down a hill (without chains). K5 Blazers (or Broncos) are better since there's more weight on the back (I've got two diesel K5 plow rigs). I have one that IS registered for highway use and I only keep chains on the rear.
Chains are fairly cheap if you buy the standard type. If that truck doesn't go anywhere far on paved highways, seems like a no-brainer to me.
